A hospital prepares a 100mg supply of technetium-99m which has a half-life of 6 hours. what is the decay factor?

Mathematics

For a half- life, the formula is
A(t) = A0(0.5)^( t / t_0.5)
where A(t) is the amount of substance at time t
A0 is the initial amount of subtance
t_0.5 is the time it will reduce its amount to half
t is the time

substitute the given to the formula
A(t) = 100(0.5)^( t/6 )
so the decay factor is 0.5^( t/6 )

Find the surface area of the cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. (Open attachment to see image of the cylinder).
Vaselesa [24]
Formula: SA = (2 × π(pie) × radius × height) + (2 × π(pie) × radius square.)
So the equation will be SA=( 2 × 3.14 × 2 × 4) + ( 2 × 3.14 × 2²)
Then, we will get                                     ↓                            ↓
                                           SA=      50.24               +         25.12
                                           <u>SA =                   75.36 in</u>

Each vertical cross-section of the triangular
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The vertical height is h=3\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

see the attached figure

To find the height h apply the Pythagoras Theorem

c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}

we have

c=AB=3\sqrt{2}\ units

a=BC=6/2=3\ units

b=AC=h\ units

substitute

(3\sqrt{2})^{2}=3^{2}+h^{2}

18=9+h^{2}

h^{2}=18-9=9

h=3\ units

How do I find this help please
KIM [24]
Area of the sector = 1/2 * r^2 * theta where theta is the angle subtended by the arc at the center  ( in radians)

In this case m < theta = 360 - 235 = 125 degrees or  2.182 radians

So, the area of shaded area = 1/2 * 20^2 * 2.182 =   436.4 in^2
